Great to see old-time Artists & Fleas vintage home collection impresario Erin Hall get some ink to announce her new store opening, Vintage Modern, in this week’s Time Out NY. Many folks may remember Erin holding court at the market throughout the Winter and Spring where she brought some of the choicest midcentury modern pieces to market every week. Drop in and say hello – congrats, Erin!
The storefront once occupied by Greenpoint boutique Old Hollywood hasn’t remained empty for long; the quaint, tin-ceilinged Vintage Modern is filled with furniture, which owner Erin Hall previously sold at the Artists & Fleas market every weekend. Her new brick-and-mortar store focuses on midcentury American pieces, like a George Nelson for Herman Miller bleached mahogany bookshelf ($975) and a 1950s black walnut coffee table that was handmade in New York ($250). You’ll also find plenty of affordable housewares, including a set of nautical-themed melamine plates and saucers ($40) as well as garbage cans printed with world maps ($30). 110 Meserole Ave between Leonard St and Manhattan Ave, Greenpoint, Brooklyn (347-560-9605, vintagemodernnyc.com). Mon–Wed by appointment, Thu–Sun noon–7pm.
